269 medical marijuana dispensaries currently open and operating in Oregon. 248 Starbucks operate in Oregon, while only 205 McDonald’s are featured in the state. So, basically, to put it in layman terms: weed is more popular than McDonald’s. So clearly, us Americans prefer our loud Kush instead of intaking calories. And it’s not that shocking to be honest.
As America becomes more and more health oriented, dispensaries and health institutions will become more and more popular, resulting in a decrease of unhealthy chain food and increase in organic material — with weed being included. Obesity is obviously a major problem in America, but it looks like we’re headed in the right direction.
In five years, as more McDonald’s continue to shutter their doors, expect this sorta thing to only increase. It’s the future, baby. 2015!
